Computer Generation of Structural Models of Amorphous Si and Ge

Open access
Wooten, F., Winer, K., Weaire, D.·1985·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

We have developed and applied a computer algorithm that generates realistic random-network models of $a$-Si with periodic boundary conditions. These are the first models to have correlation functions that show no serious discrepancy with experiment. The algorithm provides a much-needed systematic approach to model construction that can be used to generate models of a large class of amorphous materials.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
